Hello, everyone... I've looked everywhere, and I've still have a problem with validation (that even may be solved in another way)... I have two tables. Users (id, created, modified, name, login, password) and Companies (id, created, modified, name, user_id). I want an ajax search to fill the user_id in my companies table. I have tought in two ways of that:
#1 Make an ajax searchable field (the search must be with the users.name field only), that stores the user.id somewhere to pass to the company.user_id when submitting the form Since I havent found a solution, for that, I skipped to another approach #2 In the ajax searcheable field, grab the name of the user (wich is unique in the table), check the users table to see if the name really exists, grab the id and move on... BUT, I tried to make a validation (in the controller) to check if the name really exists, and, if not, accuse an error and return the same view again. I havent found how to tell the view that there is a problem with the data submitted. I am using cake version 1.2.0.5427alpha. I have a Users model with no fancy stuff I have a Company model with no fancy stuff I have a Companies controller with index and add controllers. Index lists the companies Add prints the add company view if no data is passed to it. If any data is passed to it, it SIMPLY checks if the name of the user passed is valid (I havent even done any saving in the database yet). If anyone can help with either the problems above, I would be VERY MUCH grateful. Thanks! - LS --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
